Don't know anything about a boat/hull being full of water, not this boat anyway. Stingers are good, transom is good, floor is OK, bottom had a crack in it but it's been repaired (not by me) and looks like it has held so far. Gel is good, the medium blue color is paint, the rest is gel. The paint is chipped here and there and it looks like the black gel under the blue paint is good. I'm sure that the gel that is showing can be brought back and shine very well.

Yea, I got emotional one day and already posted about that... :mad: :screwy: oh wait, no I didn't. I felt that it wasn't relavent to the forum, so I didn't post about that. :screwy: ;)
